Gland Pharma Q4 results: Profit dips 3% YoY to ₹187 crore; 1800% dividend announced
Gland Pharma's PAT came in at ₹ 187 crore for the quarter under review, as against ₹ 192 crore in the year-ago quarter, recording a 3% decline on a year-on-year basis. Meanwhile, the revenue from operations declined by 7% YoY to ₹ 1,425 crore in Q4 FY25, from ₹ 1,538 crore in Q4 FY24.
On the operating front, the earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) also fell 3% YoY to ₹ 348 crore from ₹ 359 crore. The EBITDA margin saw a small uptick to 24% in the March 2024 quarter from 23% in the year-ago period.
On a sequential basis, Gland Pharma's revenue rose 3% while PAT was higher by 9%.
Shyamakant Giri, Chief Executive Officer of Gland Pharma, commenting on the results, said, 'In Q4 FY25, our consolidated revenue reached INR 14,249 million, with a healthy EBITDA margin of 24%. On the base business, the EBITDA margin expanded to 38%, driven by volume traction in our U.S. portfolio and high-margin new product launches. Cenexi posted modest sequential improvement in revenue and gross margin, and we remain firmly committed to its turnaround.'
Going ahead, Giri said the strategic focus would be on accelerating growth in RoW and India, deepening U.S. presence through portfolio enhancement, and continuing to lead on quality and cost efficiency.

The dividend, upon approval by the shareholders, will be paid within 30 days from the date of the 47th Annual General Meeting (AGM), the company said.
Furthermore, Gland Pharma also announced the dividend record date. "The record date for the purpose of determining the members eligible to receive the final dividend for the financial year ended March 31, 2025, is Thursday, August 14, 2025," it said.

‘Hsg society can't charge excess fee from rented flats'
Mumbai: A deputy registrar of co-operative societies has told the Chaitanya Cooperative Housing Society in Pratiksha Nagar, Sion East, Mumbai, that it cannot accept excess amounts under any head from members, who rent out their flats, beyond non-occupancy charges. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now This directive follows a complaint from a flat owner alleging that the society was illegally charging Rs 5,000 as building development fund. Abhijit Deshpande, deputy registrar of co-operative societies at Mhada Mumbai City, Eastern Suburbs and Konkan Board, stated that it was improper for the society to accept amounts under the name of a development fund from members renting out their flats. He further directed that the society should adjust the disputed amount in the complainant's monthly maintenance bills within two months. The society had defended its actions by claiming that the charge was imposed following a resolution passed in the AGM. The complainant, A Shaikh, who owns a flat in the society, approached the deputy registrar's office, citing that the society was levying Rs 5,000 per year towards the 'Building Development Fund'. This levy was in addition to the statutory non-occupancy charges, as mentioned in the petition. Shaikh in his petition stated that as per Section 43 (2) (iii) (c) of Model Bye-Laws of Cooperative Housing Society, 2014, non-occupancy charges shall be levied in accordance with the circular issued by the state Department of Co-operation. In response, the society stated that a resolution was passed in 2014 to collect Rs 4,000 from members renting out their flats. The issue was revisited in the 2019 AGM, where a decision was made to increase the amount to Rs 5,000 as a development fund. Shaikh highlighted in his petition that a Government resolution issued by the state govt in Aug 2001 prohibited societies from levying more than 10% of service charges towards non-occupancy charges. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Vinayak Adep, secretary of the Chaitanya Housing Society, said, "A resolution was passed regarding charging of the amount, in an AGM of the society. It was a majority decision, and the members had agreed to it. Besides, no amount is being charged without approval in the AGM."

IndiGo targets 40% fleet on finance lease by 2030: CFO Gaurav Negi at AGM
IndiGo expects 30-40 per cent of its fleet to be on finance lease by 2030, reflecting a shift away from its long-standing reliance on sale-and-leaseback deals, Chief Financial Officer Gaurav Negi told shareholders at the airline's annual general meeting on Wednesday. As of June 30, IndiGo had 416 planes in its fleet. Of these, 69 are under finance leases, 336 under operating leases and 11 under damp leases. This works out to about 17 per cent of the fleet currently being on finance lease. Most of IndiGo's fleet today is on operating leases, where an aircraft is rented from a lessor for a fixed term and returned at the end of the lease. One common form of operating lease is the sale-and-leaseback, where the airline sells an aircraft to a lessor and leases it back, generating cash but giving up ownership. On the other hand, a finance lease gives IndiGo ownership-like control for most of an aircraft's useful life, with payments structured like loan instalments and the aircraft recorded as an asset. Moving toward finance leases gives IndiGo greater fleet control, predictable long-term costs, and potential gains from residual aircraft value. "We are increasing our fleet. We have got an order backlog for 920 planes. Someone asked us what would be the ownership (percentage) by 2030? We estimate that 30-40 per cent of the fleet, which would be about 600 planes, will be our own fleet in terms of finance lease, by 2030," Negi stated. IndiGo CEO Pieter Elbers, during the AGM, said that about 40 per cent of the airline's total passenger-carrying capacity would be deployed on international routes by 2030, compared with around 20 per cent at present. He added that the response to IndiGo's business class product -- called Stretch, launched last year on select metro-to-metro domestic routes -- has been extremely positive. The airline has since deployed it on India–Bangkok routes and is planning to extend it to services in Singapore and Dubai.

Decline in coal output drags core infrastructure growth to 2% in July
Core sector data released by the Ministry of Commerce and Industry on Wednesday showed that while infrastructure-based industries are doing well, energy segments have registered low-to-negative growth rates. Overall, output growth in India's eight core infrastructure industries remained muted in July at 2 per cent from an upwardly revised figure of 2.2 per cent in the previous month. This was on account of a high base effect and a decline in coal output. For the first four months (April-July) of the current financial year, growth stood at 1.6 per cent against 6.3 per cent last year. In July 2024, the Index of Core Industries (ICI) had risen 6.3 per cent. Data showed that output in the coal sector (-12.3 per cent) during July declined further to its lowest level since June 2020. Meanwhile, the output in crude oil (-1.3 per cent) remained in contraction for the seventh month in a row. And, output in refinery products (-1 per cent) turned negative for the first time in three months. However, buoyed by the government's capital expenditure, output in sectors like steel (12.8 per cent) and cement (11.7per cent) touched a 21-month high and four-month high, respectively. 'Only two sectors had a better year-on-year (Y-o-Y) growth than the core sector output in July 2025. These were namely steel and cement sectors, reflecting the impact of steady government capex. The improvement in growth of these sectors kept the core sector output from declining any further in July 2025,' said India Ratings associate director Paras Jasrai. The output growth of fertilisers and electricity sectors also improved to a four-month high of 2 per cent and three-month high of 0.5 per cent in July 2025, respectively. Madan Sabnavis, chief economist, Bank of Baroda, said that core sector data for July is once again dualistic with the infra-based industries doing very well. But the energy segments registered low-to-negative growth rates. 'In the oil complex, besides demand being low, there is also a correlation with global crude oil prices that have been stable in the $ 60-70/bbl. This is also indicative of slowing consumption of end products like petrol and diesel. It can be partly explained by the growing importance of EVs, especially in the passenger car segment,' he added. The eight core sectors constitute 40.27 per cent of the Index of Industrial Production (IIP), which had fallen to a 10-month low of 1.5 per cent in June from an upwardly revised figure of 1.9 per cent in May. It was due to high base effect and a decline in the output of the mining and electricity sector.
